Blitar, Indonesia, 15 May 2024 -- A historic moment has occurred and was felt by the entire Catholic Vocational School community saint Yusup Blitar. All 129 class Yusup Blitar for three years. This activity took place at Lesehan Presiden 2, Blitar City, East Java.

Also present at this Purnawiyata activity were the Chairman of the Yohanes Gabriel Foundation representing Blitar, Father Antonius Iwan Setyabudi, and Mr. Alex Silli as Chair of the School Committee and parents of the students. In his speech, Father Ferdinandus A.M.D Reo, SDB, as principal of the school, said that academically, the education process for class XII students had ended, but the ties of brotherhood and friendship would not end. Mr. Alex Silli reiterated that the coaching and education process he had received for three years at school was a provision for continuing his life in society. Father Antonius Iwan Setyabudi gave a punchline that confirmed that "Every person you meet is a teacher, every place you visit is a school, and every event you experience is a lesson."

Dance, singing, and acoustic music performances from the students added to the excitement of the Retirement Activities for the 2023/2024 academic year. The activity ended with photos and a group banquet.
